Located in Observatory, this out-of-this-world attraction is worth a look. But you'll find plenty more to discover in the area. Table Mountain, Cape Town Stadium, and Two Oceans Aquarium aren't too far from South African Astronomical Observatory.

Spacious and very comfortable rooms in a delightful property. Excellent staff, if a little too formal / deferential at times. Only thing I can score it down for is attention to detail on housekeeping -teapot and cup not cleaned away one day. Stairs and hall carpet needs a vacuum. Would recommend especially for the tranquility.
